Month: May 2016

I think we’ve teased out this Horse Show lineup for about as long as we possibly can. Today you get to finally find out about the last 4 bands playing Horse Show 2016!

First up, we’re really excited to bring 6’10 from Chicago. You probably can’t guess how tall the singer of this band is… 6’10 the acoustic project from the guys of famous celtic punk band Flatfoot 56. This band captures the energy of Flatfoot and presents it in a whole new/0ld way.

We’re also happy to bring along our favorite Springfield lofi garage rock band SAP. This band is composed of some of the mover shakers of the Black Sheep Cafe and led by the supernatural Clare Frachey. Check out their video from playing The Studio Show this year.

Also up for the Horse Show is new Springfield folk Sawhorse. Mid tempo folk blending a few different styles of country to include traditional flatpicking instruments with fingerpicking rhythms and pedal steel twang.

And last band to be announced Springfield’s top Guardians of the Galaxy inspired punk band Starlorde. This supergroup includes members of several Springfield bands to form a band to save the universe.

We’ve got another group of bands to announce for the 2016 Horse Show at Refuge Ranch on June 18th.

First up is St. George from St Louis. Soulful, folky, bluesy, jazzy, historical vibes. Some Radon fans may remember Jordan Bauer who performed at the 2014 Horse Show and a couple times at Radon basement shows. We’re excited to see this new project from Jordan and friends. They’ve just released their first recording, which you can check out here.

Also playing the Horse Show will be Il Neige, electro indie pop from Chicago. Her music feels of winter winds, snowflakes, and clear January nights, which is perfect for a Summer music fest.

Representing the Springfield metal scene will be Vacant Skies. This will actually be the last show for this band, so be sure not to miss. Influences include August Burns Red and Underoath.

Blind Social, a Springfield 3 piece will be here in force with their punk ‘n roll. This band played the 2014 Horse Show and a few basement shows at the Radon, excited to have them back.

And lastly Springfield band Stereo Static. These guys just recently killed in the basement this May. Stereo Static is an alternative rock band that fuses the dancey rhythms with clever lyrics and a bit of distortion.

That’s it for now, we have one more lineup announcement left and then we’ll just be counting the days until June 18th! Hop on the event page here.
